My therapist seems to think so. It destroyed my inner social circle. Even the people that survived were never the same.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

Really sorry to hear that

You could still show it to him though. Right?

Not everyone, but anyone yes. I intend to read it properly during Christmas vacation.
honey the codewitch wrote: B) maybe i'm the only one that ever uses it
Just because I don't have a reason to use it today. I still know where to go when I need to look it up.

Nope.
The ways to reach Ikigai is can be convoluted.
So keep in mind that what the world needs might be wisdom and knowledge.

A. I don't completely follow it.
B. I probably won't use it.
C. I still think it's cool though!

I'd love to know about the things you're not clear on as it will help me in future explanations/articles.
I'm probably going to continue working on this beast for awhile. It's got a lot of shoring up that needs to happen

It not a case of I can't understand it, it's a case of I don't have enough free time to spend on going through the stuff that isn't immediately obvious. I am working on three home projects at the same time as being under pressure at work to finish ahead of schedule because... government!

Good because I'm more asking about what wasn't immediately clear? I'd like to make this accessible, even to people without a lot of free time.

I think the first thing you should do by way of explanation is to describe what this/these would be used for and demonstrate a "real-world" application for it/them. I once wrote my own language compiler and debugger and your stuff is rather puzzling for me too. I think this would help people appreciate what it is a bit more.

My professor from Design and Analysis of Algorithms class (who is BTW known to be a crackhead) is teaching Big Data Analytics in next semester and since I'm a crackhead too so I thought not only taking up that course but also doing my research with him.
I emailed him about my interest and he asked me to visit him during his office hours. Guess what... I went to his office and the only response I got from him was "I don't know what you are talking about"
So of course I had no option but to come back and perhaps reconsider my choice. But guess what... I just received email from him saying that I can join his lab as early as starting tomorrow with no further questions
I'm shocked since I know he doesn't accept students that easily and well though this means giving up my winter vacations and the very little time that I've been having these days for myself but still I'm happy and I guess a little proud too. Wish me luck

Good luck! In my experience if you have the guts you can learn a lot from 'crackheads'...

I guess this is what being a "crackhead" leads to.

The last horrible late night shift at the nursing home is over.
On to nursing school.
Woo. He hopes Doctors without borders won't send him to chad. I figure anywhere they'd send you is somewhere nobody wants to be so I'm wondering why he draws the line. Chad isn't even in the worst 5 I can think of off hand.
Anyway, he's getting a bit ahead of himself. He hasn't even gotten accepted into nursing school yet.
Nor learned french. Though he knows spanish and picks up languages like i pick up programming languages so it's not much of an issue.
